The Berlitz Language School located in Pembroke Pines Fl is simply wonderful. We enrolled my…read morenephew in their language program this past summer and the experience literally transformed his ability to speak Spanish and more importantly his desire to learn a new language. The program director, Andrea Jurgensen, was incredibly supportive and designed a custom two-week immersion program that fit my nephews specific needs and his summer availability. The Spanish instructor, Malena Olamendi, was simply marvelous! The combination of her kindness, patience and disciplined approach were magical in achieving my nephew's transformation.

Some might say I'm a bit obsessive because my kindergartener (who has no academic problems at all)…read moreis a student at Huntington. I work within the school system and I see what these kids (even kindergarteners) are dealing with. The level of expectancy is outrageous and so I wanted my daughter to be ahead of the game. She started kindergarten not reading very much at all but she's in a good school with a great teacher and with the help of Huntington, she is now doing excellent! It amazes me how well she's advanced and she has only had about two months at Huntington! Huntington gives you monthly updates on your child(ren)'s progress and they will even come to your parent/teacher conferences and talk directly to the teacher about areas of concern so that they can focus more on those areas as well. She is beginning to tell time, she's reading things aloud wherever we go, she loves learning and doing homework and she loves Huntington. It's very expensive so I can't say that we will be here forever but we will definitely keep them on speed dial and will use them when needed.

I am very disappointed with our experience. I enrolled my daughter because she truly needs support…read morein math, and I was specifically looking for one-on-one tutoring. During our initial meeting, I was assured that she would receive individualized attention. However, that has not been the case. The current setup involves one tutor working with multiple students at the same time, which is different from what was explained to me. Don't waste your money if what you're looking for is a one to one tutor.

This review has been sitting dormant in my Yelp account since 2023…read more From the testing by the owner, I was informed that my child had stealth dyslexia, which is why we signed up for summer slide in 2023. After a few weeks, my son presented with increased anxiety and crying. He became dysregulated where he was chewing gum due to anxiety. He cited the behavior with one specific instructor as dismissive and restrictive. He stated that she was capable of offering help to students. She just didn't offer him assistance in a way that was empowering. Her communication was not constructive. He repeatedly expressed his needs as a learner. He wanted to focus on improving his writing. After the owner removed contact with him and the teacher at my request, I learned that my son was threatened by another teacher that he would be sent back to the previous instructor if he didn't comply. Compliance was big in this environment, more than learning. He's a well behaved, polite kid so these methods were inappropriate so I withdrew him. I requested that we end the Summer Program immediately. We received a refund for the final week; however, the owner provided an unsolicited diagnosis data later that my child had ASD. Prior to starting camp, I shared documents from my son's psychologist and play therapist. An ADOS evaluation along with multiple other assessments were completed and unfounded by a licensed psychologist and therapist. All evaluations included visual impairment from a licensed developmental optometrist. His tutor also provided a 1:1 consult with the lead teacher. Learning Lab provided no instruction to focus on writing as requested. The owner went as far as to refer me to a parent who was opening a school for ASD students. We removed Learning Lab from our team. We followed up with vision therapy and addressing anxiety from this experience. In 2024, My son was tested by BCPS School Psychologist and Vision invernant. They reported a reading score at 7th grade level when he was 4th grade. There is no sign of dyslexia. We are now preparing for summer 2025. Last month, I reviewed his standardized test scores with the assistant principal at my son's school. He tested in the top 90th %-tile nationwide across all core courses.

First time going to Learning Lab this summer (2025). I enrolled my 2 sons (4th grader and 6th…read moregrader) in their Smart Summer Program. Both my boys have ADHD, my oldest also has Dyslexia. I have been impressed with the program. First the owner starts with a student evaluation to determine their levels in reading and math. Then, she creates a custom learning plan to target the gaps and develop the child's skills in areas where they are behind. I was concerned my kids would fight me about going since they weren't interested in any school work during their summer break. To my surprise, they have been extremely cooperative and enjoy going. The program is 3 hours a day, 5 days a week for 6 weeks. They like all of the teachers and the 30 minute rotations keep them engaged. They are working on improving their reading fluency, comprehension and writing skills. Each week they work on an essay which is great since both my kids really struggle with writing and supporting sentences. They are also spending time on math as well. Overall, we are very happy with this program and I intend on enrolling my boys again next summer. This definitely helps to keep them on track and not suffer the summer slip as most kids do when they aren't working on educational material. I also plan to enroll them in one-on-one tutoring or homework lab at Learning Lab during the school year. I'm really happy I found this place. I've tried various tutors over the years, but I haven't gotten the structure and progress measuring as I have here at the Learning Lab.
